SATURDAY AFTERNOON ACTIVITIES

On Saturday afternoon Pete Fietta and his wife Tina have graciously invited all of us to their place on Cazenovia Lake. The first photo shows his beautiful home as you approach the entrance. The second photo shows Pete and Tina on their boat at the lake and the final photo is of Pete demonstrating to us how he plans to arrive at the party. It’s all shaping up to be a wonderful weekend.

TOGGENBURG

Excitement is beginning to build as the reunion committee works on final preparations for our Reunion Weekend get together on 8 -9 October. The top photo shows the exterior of the Toggenburg facility where we will host our Saturday evening festivities. Second photo is an interior shot of the facility with (L-R) Pete Fietta, Dawn Verdow Dorazio and Barb Frost Osborn sitting at one of the tables.

Shown above is a photo of the Inn. I actually remember having dinner there with my family many years ago. It’s strange that many of us have moved away from CNY yet I have a friend here in Tampa Bay (JDHS Class of 1968) who just purchased home only blocks from the Inn and is planning on returning to the area once he retires.

MUSIC OF OUR TIME ...

Several members of the reunion committee have been talking about the recently developed music survey and some of the particular music we remembered. Peyton Hills sent several of us a link to music of the 50’s and I thought it was worth posting the link to the blog. It not only brings back the music but memories of many other things – girls clothing, cars, places we frequented and many other memories. Take a listen …
